Project 365 - February 4

February 4 - Today, Bruce and I both had off for another "ice day." Of course, there was less ice this time that our last "ice storm" a couple of weeks ago. I don't want to have the make the day up later in the year, but I won't complain about a day off! I could really get used to four day weeks!!!! :) Bruce and I got the whole house cleaned and even had time to just sit and relax. Tonight, we went out for an early birthday dinner for me!!! We had never been to Monte's, and we like to try new places, so this is where I chose. We give it an A+!! We got cheese fritters for an appetizer - four huge hush puppy looking things with six types of cheeses melted inside and a marinara sauce for dipping. How could that be bad? :) I got a filet mignon covered in bearnaise sauce for my main course, and Bruce got a ribeye covered in seven jumbo fried shrimp and a Cajun cream sauce. They were both delicious!! We would defnitely head to Monte's again for a nice night out!!

February 3 - I forgot to take a picture again today, and today would have been a perfect picture day. I had a fender-bender on the way home from school, but I obviously wasn't thinking because I didn't get 1 picture! :( Maybe it was the fact that it was FREEZING and misting outside that made me not think!! Bruce and I went to the body shop the next day and got everything out of my car, so I got some pictures then. You can't tell from this picture, but my muffler is dragging on the ground, and the white stuff in the muffler is foam from the other driver's front bumper. His car was in much worse shape than mine, because his little car sort of crushed right up underneath mine. I know my CRV is not huge, but I am thankful it was bigger/taller than the car that hit me!! Of course, when we opened the trunk, the whole floor was buckled up...poor Patty (that's what we call my CRV!).

February 2 - I actually forgot to take a picture today, so I backtracked and took a picture of what happened today. Two weeks ago when I was sick, they took a chest X-ray to make sure I did not have pneumonia and found some calcified granulomas (which are harmless) on the X-ray. The doctor wanted confirmation that that is what they were, so I had X-rays done again today that had to be read by a radiologist. I actually had to have it done at River Oaks Hospital. Good news...everything looks normal!!! I have talked to a couple of doctors, including Cathy, in the last two weeks, and they say that pretty much everyone that grows up in this area of the country probably has calcified granulomas. You just don't ever know you have them unless you have an X-ray done, which is usually done for another reason.

February 1 - I guess if I am going to become a better photographer this year, I should probably get these books out and read a little, huh? They were a Christmas present a few years ago from Chad and Cathy, my brother and sister-in-law. I have looked at them. But maybe it is time to study them a bit more!
